My name is Joanna Slup. I am a Chartered Physiotherapist registered with the Health Professions Council. I have a special interest in scoliosis and problems related to spinal deformities.
I am a Certified Schroth therapist, one of only a few certified Schroth therapist in the UK. I organize intensive treatment in London for people who suffer from Scoliosis.
Treatment is based on the Schoth method. The Katharina Schroth method is a non-surgical method for treatment people who suffer from scoliosis that focuses on increasing and range of motion and improving control.
I continue to attend post graduate courses to update my knowledge and skills.
I belive this is essential to provide a high quality of care for clients.
Conservative treatment has been shown to have better results than surgery.
Treatment based on the Schroth method has been used successfully in Europe since 1921, but still is relatively unheard of in the UK.
The Schroth method uses intensive rehabilitation treatment to:
decrease pain
improve pulmonary function
improve the symmetry of posture
help prevent spinal curvatures from progressing
The treatment is recommended for children and adults, between 8 to 70 years old.
I am very active person who love sport with a special interest in cycling, skiing and paragliding - I am a licensed pilot.
I promote a healthy lifestyle and I try to encourage people, especialyy children to physical activity.
I would like to draw parent's attention to the fact that spine check up is essential to prevent scoliosis in children, especially during puberty where spinal deformities can develop.
